My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

    Shag Rugs

    • Spray extraction, along with use of a wool-approved product, can be used to clean shag rugs.
    • Shedding is normal for wool products and decreases over time. Do not pull yarn out,
      as this may result in damage to the rug.
    • Canister vacuums without a beater bar are most effective in cleaning shag rugs. Vacuums with beater bars and/or brushes, or those set too low, may abrade
      the face of the rug.
